Options
- A22.0 A
- B2.2 A
- C5.5 A
- D11.0 A
Correct answer
B. 2.2 A
Step-by-step solution
Given V = 220 (2 10^3 t) V, the peak voltage is V_m = 220 V and the angular frequency is = 2 10^3 rad/s. The inductive reactance is X_L = L = (2 10^3) (10 10⁻³) = 20 , . The capacitive reactance is X_C = 1 C = 1 (2 10^3) (25 10⁻⁶) = 1 50 10⁻³ = 20 , . Since X_L = X_C , the circuit is in resonance. The impedance of the circuit is Z = R^2 + (X_L - X_C)^2 = R = 100 , . The current amplitude is I_m = V_m Z = 220 100 = 2.2 A. Answer: 2.2 A
